Luxury automakers Lexus, Cadillac and Audi make the most dependable vehicles, according to J.D. Power and Associates' latest ranking of how cars and trucks hold up after four to five years of driving.

Other high-ranking makes were Infiniti, Lincoln, Acura, Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Buick and Toyota, the market-research firm said Tuesday.

The rankings were based on a survey of 21,000 original owners of 1992 model-year cars and trucks who kept their vehicles for four or five years. This year, J.D. Power combined results for cars and light trucks, which include minivans, sport utility vehicles and pickups.
